Wow! Very nice truck.

For the right price, I could find a way to get it here :) Thanks for considering this.

Is this your trailer? Is that trailer for sale? The trailer weighs 6K? Do you know what the payload capacity is? Where do you live?

Squirt, hiding where? ;)

CGarbee, How much weight can that trailer hold?

Yeah, I poked around for an hour or so after getting that model # and came up with squat. They must be rare. Usually, you find something somewhere in some condition.

jasonjc, thanks for the info.

Just noticed that Montana trailer was not a dual. I have a hard time believing it's 10 ton w/o tandem duals.

Ryan, that last trailer would be ideal. I've never seen one that cheap. It's in Montana though and I'm in Fort Worth :(

Thanks guys. The main reason I was thinking military was because I could possible get it cheaper than civilian. The going price for a new civilian 10 ton trailer is 8K+. Do they make a military semi type with ramps I could run on a dolly? Another reason I was considering the dolly was...

Awesome. My Dad is the real mechanic, so when everybody who wants to has put their input in, I'm going to print this post out as a guide, and he and I will go through step by step. Thanks again.

Oh, I didn't see the one at the top here. I was using the one under "my account".

Wow. Now that's a sweet rig

I've read the FAQ, and I can't get a signature on my posts. I have one in my profile, and I check the 'attach signature' check box when creating a post, but my signature does not show up. Any ideas or am I missing something?

I'm going to take it really slowly for sure. I'm in no rush. :)

I've been looking around for a heavy equipment trailer so I can move around my 20K lb backhoe with my M817 when I get them both fixed up (two unfinished projects). An M817 can tow 30K right (on the road)? Thought the following was interesting (but I don't think it would be street legal). It's...

Wow. Thanks for all the advice guys. I'm out of town this weekend, but next weekend, I'm going open her up a bit and see what I've got as described above. I"ll keep you updated. Any other suggestions are welcome.

Desert Rat, How would I check for hydrostatic lock, and how is that fixed? Thanks for the advice. Jason

rmgill, Thanks for the advice.
